 Description   

On a clean Debian with almost nothing installed prior to MariaDB, running mysql-test-run.pl will throw a warning because it tries to run the "patch" tools which hasnt been installed as a dependency of the mariadb-test package.

Here is the error :

root@sqltest1:/usr/share/mysql/mysql-test# ./mysql-test-run.pl invalid-test
 
Logging: ./mysql-test-run.pl  invalid-test

ps: installing the "patch" package fixes the issue.

It's not a required dependency, mtr can work without patch too, it'll automatically skip tests that need patching.
I think we should add "patch" as a "suggested" dependency.
